3 years solo OC and I have been molested quite a few times.

Only once out of all our SBOC events has there ever been e-checks and we regularly have between 40 and 80 people at our meets and meet between 2 to 4 times a month.

The vast majority of e-checks I've received have been when I OC solo or with one other person.

Its also the time when cops who are anti-oc will target you because its a lot easier to have it be their word against yours, even if you are totally in the right. Its much harder when there are 50 other people watching and recording the cops than just you.

i didnt expect that!
i expected to be ignored, and that you would never return, or reply!
your explanation of your studies and experience clears up my misgivings about you.
i also see that youre mature enough to take a licking, and still keep your cool!
i actually planned to write a few much ruder comments, but i held back.
i was showing my ignorance when i typed to you,
but i have seen lots of drive by young posters come to the forum.
so,,, carry on!

Need to never judge people based on their OCDO registration time or # of posts.
All but 2 or 3 of the 6 SBOC board members who are VERY well versed in the law and open carry issues even have accounts on this forum.

While this forum is great, it is not the end-all-be-all of open carry in CA.

I'd even venture to say that more respect should be given to people with # of OC events under their belt than OCDO posts.

Im not sure just how to respond to that. Some may not be offended if 'experience' was substituted where you wrote 'events'. Of course, advocacy of open carry should not be about respect or street cred or the establishment of exclusive group subsets.

I have been UOC'ing for over a year now and haven't had a (e) check. I guess I'm staying out of trouble.

ive been thinking, a lot!
studying the california law for a year,
is not nearly as informative as interacting on this forum, for 6 months,
reading real life run ins with LEO, and yacking back and forth
with studious members here about the ins and outs of the laws and outcomes.
their is a lot of difference between the word of law, and its application!
you cant learn about noob mistakes in a law book.
im sorry i was so rude to vindicated, but, i worry!

Some times talking straight is the only option. I would hate to see some one locked up for running out and not knowing the law.

I don't think he took it personal.

Carry on!
